I LEM SECONd ANNUAl REpoRT -,, PREFACE I This SeCond Annual Report of the Local Environmental Management Project CLEM), covering the period from February 1, 1994 to January 31, 1995, is a requirement ofthe contract , between the Research Triangle Institute and the US Agency for International Development for implementation ofthe project. The Report outlines the accomplishments of LEM in Poland and HiIngary during the I reporting year and details LEM's experience in providing technical assistance and training in the two countries while maintaining their separate focus: waste water management in 5 Polish cities and solid waste management in 4 Hungarian cities. The narrative also shows how the I, LEM project interacts with a small universe of contacts, essential to its purpose as a US sponsored project including other US supported projects, counterparts at the local, regional and central government level, non-governmental organizations, international organizations, t conferencing and finally with US agencies working overseas, e.g. the USAID Offices in Poland and Hungary as well as US diplomatic residents. I Other sections of the Report examine problems that have occurred in both countries which have made implementation difficult and also examines "lessons learned" during the course of the project's existence. One section, important in the light of AID's emphasis on , measurement, presents both quantitative and qualitative impact indicators and discusses their application. Future activities encompassing the remainder of the current project life are also enumerated.The Report concludes with an exposition of the proposed two year extensjon of I- the project and discusses aspects ofproject management during the extension aimed at using the limited funds to better advantage by relying more on Polish and Hungarian technical, I training and managerial expertise. Also included are eight appendices which support the discussions in the body of the report. These make good reference points and may prove· interesting to development professionals I eJq)lo 'ng effec e ways to implement similar projects. I I March 31, 1995 I 1 I I I LEM SECONd ANNUAl REPORT I I, I. INTRODUCTION I The Local Environmental Management Project (LEM) is a three year (1992-1995) project operated by the Research Triangle Institute under contract with AID's Office of Environment and Natural Resources. Its object is to improve local environmental management with I particular focus on two central European countries. In Poland LEM has five clients cities who are involved in solving the problems of waste water management while in Hungary LEM works with four cities in solid and hazardous waste management. LEM accomplishes its t objectives through the provision of a wide range of technical assistance coupled with an extensive training program. The lessons learned in LEM are spread to other communities in ,I each country through technical workshops and by inclusion of interested communities in the LEM training program. This is the Local Environmental Management Project's (LEM) second Annual Report and is t written primarily to respond to the AID requirement that Research Triangle Institute (RTI), submit an annual report which describes progress and constraints and outlines planned activities for the remainder of the project life. At the same time the annual report exercise I establishes for RTI, LEM and AID a permanent record ofhow the funds were used to. achieve project goals. I But perhaps its more lasting feature is an insight into project development that could be of value to development professionals designing, or operating, similar projects; a review of the )" Report, especially ofcertain ofthe appendices, may convey experience that will assist qthers in avoiding similar pitfalls, e.g. Lessons Learned, or in adapting procedures and project elements, e.g. LEM's training courses, that may eliminate preliminary experimentation in I project start-up. The Report does not follow a regular calendar year because of the difference between the project contract start date (July 7,1992) and the field-work start date (February 7, 1993) which I situation was thoroughly explained in the first LEM ANNUAL REPORT, p.7. As a result, the period covered for this report is February 1,1994 to January 31,1995. I The major sections ofthis SECOND ANNUAL REPORT include a summary ofthe Report's main features which is followed by more detailed discussion of project relationships with other USAID projects and counterparts, comparison of proposed work plan with actual I, activities, problems and lessons learned, impact indicators, proposed activities to the end of the project and, finally, a look at LEMs future. I For those interested in particular details ofLEM operations, eight appendices cover training, project organization, publications, monthly report synopsis, lessons learned, impact indicators I and the activity scope for the proposed LEM extension. I I I LEM SECONd ANNUAl REpoRT ,I II. SUMMARY OF MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS I LEM's major accomplishments during this reporting period were: • Completion of all major technical assistance to the nine municipalities in Poland and I Hungary and establishment ofprocedures for specialized technical assistance. • Development and implementation of all but one of the eight training courses for Poland and Hungary. The only one not completed by January 31,1995, Waste Water Treatment I PlantOperators, will be given in April, 1995. I • Turnover ofthe two major Hungarian training courses to three Hungarian training institu­ tions who will incorporate the courses into their regular extension training curriculum. • Spread ofLEM's technical assistance and training procedure to include over 50 non-LEM I' municipalities in Poland and Hungary. • Acceptance of the' LEM operation by regional and central government agencies, I especially in Poland. • Coordination ofLEM activities with other USAID sponsored projects such as EPA, WEF, I EAP, ETP wherein a constantly used channel ofcommunication exists. I • Cooperative efforts maintained with ngos such as the German Marshall Fund, the Olawa Foundation, Polish Sanitary· Engineers Association, the Hungarian School of Pubiic , Administration, the Hungarian Municipal Cleansing Association, etc. • Construction start-up on all five waste water projects in the Polish LEM municipalities and constructive management/financing changes to solid waste management in the II Hungarian LEM municipalities ofGyor and Ozd. • International assistance cooperation between Poland and Finland promoted by the use of I LEM's training courses. • Successful efforts to promote funding for LEM projects in Poland and the continual I ol1treach effort toexplore other sources through seminars and workshops. • Integration ofHungarian-Polish LEM activities by the transference through reports, work­ 1 shops and technical assistance ofthe Hungarian

Gortyna borelii Pierret, 1837 {leucographa auct., nee Borkhausen) is an extremely local species, but has a very wide distribution. It is known from England (one locality only), France (Seine-et-Oise, the nominotypical form, Charente, Cher, Deux-Sevres), Spain (Catalonia : Baells, Valada), W. Germany (Baden-Württemberg, Nassau, Pfalz), E. Germany (Thüringen, Leipzig, Halle), Poland, the Carpathian Basin and S.W. Siberia. Unfortuna- tely, many of the European populations have already disappeared. Popula- tions in Central Europe are referrable to ssp. lunata Freyer, 1839, which is larger than the nominate subspecies. In this note, the distribution of lunata and its foodplants in the Carpathian Basin is discussed. I. The foodplants of G. borelii lunata Frr. in the Carpathian Basin. Clearly, populations of the moth can only occur where the foodplants occur and so, first, the known distributions of the foodplants are presented. For the Carpathians and Carpathian Basin, three species are mentioned in the literature and a fourth is discussed here. 1. Peucedanum longifolium L. : Grows only on limestone. Occurs on the Balkan Peninsula, but also in the Carpathian Basin and the Southern Carpathians (Kazan Gorge, Mehadia, Bâile Herculane, Cserna Valley) up to about 1000 m. This is the only known foodplant of the highest occurring European borelii population, of the Domogled, a mountain near Mehadia (F.

    PhD THESIS ANNA GÁBOR SETTLING HISTORY AND ARCHITECTURAL RELICS OF JEWS IN NORTHEASTERN-HUNGARY SUMMARY Supervisor: Dr. Attila Paládi Kovács professor Full member of Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA) PhD School of Historical Sciences Ethnography PhD Program of European Ethnology BUDAPEST 2010 I began this work in the 1980s with two goals in mind: to look for memories in buildings and to examine the origin of rural Jewish life. I wanted to understand how Jewish history started in Hungary. Therefore, I undertook my field research in the region of Szabolcs Szatmár County. In researching the historical literature it became clear that a less well-known – and for me more interesting - third wave of Jewish immigration to Hungary followed those of Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The earlier history is described in the work of Kohn Sámuel and subsequent studies appear to rely on his research. Additional material can be found in the Hungarian Jewish Archives, specifically volume VII which includes the paper of Grünvald Fülöp and Ember Győző. The study of Virág István mentioned in the preface of my work, „A zsidók jogállása Magyarországon 1670-1780 (The legal rights of Jews in Hungary, 1670- 1780). These studies describe in broad lines the process of immigration. As I was interested in the exact details, I continued my research in the Szabolcs-Szatmár Regional Archives looking for information with local content. I focused on three particular areas: when the Jews came, where they came from and what their occupations were. Ethnographies and studies of local history from this time period do not deal with these subjects at all.

    Jozefa Barreto – Szilvia Borbely „On the good track – Developing and adopting good examples for labour market integration and the enhancement of equal opportunities” Employment profile in the North Hungarian region Factors which influence the employment profile of the region 12.66% of the whole county’s population lives in this region, mostly in Borsod- Abaúj-Zemplén County, which is the third most inhabited county after the counties of the Central region. Nevertheless, Nógrád County is our less inhabited county. The region comprises distinctly developed areas. The centre of the region is Miskolc, but Eger, the region’s other big town is in a more favorable position. The third biggest town, Salgótarján is stagnating. North Hungary is the region the most severely touched by the transformation of the political system which caused the collapse of its industry and agriculture. Formerly, its GDP exceeded the national average but now it does not even reach the two-third of it. The DGP per capita in the North Hungary region was 404,000 Ft in 1995 (72% of the national value) and 1643 thousand Ft in 2008 (61% of the national value). Tiszaújváros and the Southern hill area is the small region with the highest income. The most underdeveloped are the small regions at the Slovakian border. The small region with the lowest income on a national level is also situated in this region. North Hungary is the least civic region, only half of the population lives in towns. This is mostly due to the economic underdevelopment. The region is characterized by a structure of small settlements.

  • Cultural Institutions and Scenes in Miskolc, 1830–1930
    STUDIA HISTORYCZNE549 R. LVI 2013, Z. 4 (224) PL ISSN 0025-1429 Éva Gyulai CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS AND SCENES IN MISKOLC, 1830–1930 Abstract In the Reform Age, the market town of Miskolc gained a distinguished cultural status in Hungary: it boasted a printing press, a permanent theatre, casinos, an 8-grade school, a famous seminar for young ladies, bookshops, a scholars’ private society and a liberal intellectual elite. During Dualism no buildings were erected for cultural purposes as culture was not top priority for the business elite. After WWI Miskolc acquired new social and cultural functions in the region, but some facilities were lacking: a Palace of Music was built, but there was still no public library. Key Words: Urbanization of Miskolc, cultural institutions, museum, casinos, cultural scenes. Słowa kluczowe: urbanizacja Miszkolca, instytucje kultury, muzea, kasyna, sceny teatralne. The century between 1830 and 1930 can be regarded as the age of modernisation for both Hungary and Miskolc. The investigation of such long historical periods brings us nearer to a successful comparative analysis of Central European cities and their level of urbanisation. It seems expedient to divide this century-long period into three parts in accordance with the events of both the national history of Hungary and the urban history of Miskolc. The first part, the period lasting from the 1830s to the 1860s, is called the Reform Age or the post-revolutionary period (following the Revolution of 1848) in Hungarian historiography. This period includes the final decades of the pre-modern social order as well as the first period of capitalism and embour- geoisement.

The Matyóföld Creative and Artistic Association finds the past and present of Mezőkövesd important to be revealed. Welcome speech It is an honor for me to welcome the authors and all those in present at the fourth Matyóföld Culture speech session. ” You cannot understand the present, if you fail to learn your past” – the proverb goes. We, the matyos, the people of Mezőkövesd certainly do have things to remember. The town’s civil organizations, our economical and social life all feed on our world famous culture and healing water. The various organizations, clubs , and reading clubs are often taken for granted by people. Members of these circles transmit the thoughts they consider important to share with their audience. One cannot but treasure their eager work, without which we would be poorer, since the enthusiastic research work of these dedicated people helps us to learn more about our hometown.

Gray On 22 August 1820 a small crowd gathered a few miles outside the village of Szirma, in Borsod county in north-eastern Hungary. They had been brought to this spot by a petition, filed with the local county administration a few months earlier by the inhabitants of the village. The agreement that detailed the terms of the peasants’ land use, their rents and their other obligations to their lords, most recently recorded in 1807, was coming to an end. Prior to negotiating any new agreement, the peasants wished to confirm how far their rights to the land extended across the landscape around the village. In particular, the petition referred to two areas of ‘untended plots and commonly-used lands’ that bordered the village’s fields where rights and access were uncertain.1 To the north and east of Szirma lay a portion of land known as the Jenke puszta.2 The peasants had been using this land as pasture to supplement their regular holdings. For this right the Szirma peasants paid a token sum of a few forints per head a year to their lord, Gróf János Támas Szirmay.

    DETUROPE – THE CENTRAL EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND TOURISM Vol. 12 Issue 3 2020 ISSN 1821-2506 Original scientific paper MISKOLC – A CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPEAN CITY IN THE CROSSROADS Viktória JÓZSAa a Nord Consult Ltd. 1106 Budapest, 45 Jászberényi Road, [email protected] Cite this article: Józsa, V. (2020). Miskolc – a Central and Eastern European city in the crossroads. Deturope. 12(3): 82-107. Abstract The main objective of this study is to present the overarching history of a second-tier city (Miskolc, Hungary) in Central and Eastern Europe from its foundation to the current era and beyond, to the plans for the next EU programming period between 2021–2027. The city has been in the crossroads of industries, cultures, borders, innovations and EU programming periods throughout its history. Our basic hypothesis was that with the overarching but systematically structured analysis and presentation of the history of the city, we can define its main development stages and gain deeper insights in the roots of the present and future tendencies. Thus, we studied and synthetized the literature about the history of the city and identified six phases in its development path based on two main aspects (1) geopolitics and legal status and (2) local economy and society. With a strong focus on the 20th century, we summarized the main tendencies and city forming forces, actors and catalysts, and also identified some critical points. Finally, the determining and newest initiative for the next EU programming period between 2021–2027 is introduced (Creative Region), that is expected to shape the future of the examined city and its region.

  • Creating a Geothermal Atlas of Hungary
    PROCEEDINGS. 42nd Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University. Stanford. California. February 13-15. 2017 SGP-TR-212 Creating a Geothermal Atlas of Hungary Aniko N. Toth University of Miskolc Miskolc-Egyetemváros. 3515 Hungary [email protected] Keywords: Geothermal database. thermal well. abandoned hydrocarbon well. national geothermal atlas ABSTRACT Hungary’s excellent geothermal potential is well-known. Traditionally, most of the country’s thermal water has been used for spas. Most of the country’s geothermal energy production is used as a direct heat supply to heat housing projects and businesses. As yet there is no operational geothermal power-plant in Hungary. Neither is the market for ground-source heat-pumps very strong, no doubt because of a depressed economy that has still not recovered from the global recession. Despite the weak economy, a few large-scale projects are being prepared. Until now, these have been hindered by the absence of a strong reliable and official government authority which can absolutely and unequivocally vouch for Hungary’s geothermal data. For this reason, the Hungarian Energy and Public Utility Regulatory Authority requested in 2016 that a study be made to analyze and summarize the geothermal potential of every one of the country’s 19 counties. The resulting study used information from the Hungarian Geological and Geophysical Institute, and consulted the geothermal databases of the Hungarian Office for Mining and Geology. These two sources yielded data for 1622 thermal wells. In addition, more than 70 abandoned hydrocarbon wells were also analyzed, as the Hungarian Mine Utilization Authority judged those wells to be suitable for geothermal use.
